Film Club:  We're back in full swing this week with Charlie Chaplin's famous Modern Times.  The movie is a mixture of his signature comedy (poking fun of the new technologies of the day) and an awareness of social injustices that were prevalent during Depression-era USA.  Join us on Friday at 3:30pm in Maestra V's room.  All middle schoolers are welcome!
